The DeWalt DCK483D2 bundles three 20V MAX XR brushless tools with an LED work light: a compact 1/2-inch drill/driver, a compact reciprocating saw and a 1/4-inch three-speed impact driver. All three run on DeWalt's 20V MAX battery platform, so the packs and charger work across the line. The brushless motors are built for longer runtime and less maintenance than brushed rivals, and the compact bodies suit trim work, remodeling and tight spaces. It is a starter kit for a homeowner or a second set for a tradesperson already on the 20V system; the light is basic next to the tools.

Owners rate the kit well, praising the brushless tools and the value of getting three of them together. Complaints center on the light and on the compact recip saw's limits in heavy work.
The DeWalt DCK483D2 is a 20V MAX XR brushless combo kit with four tools: a compact drill/driver, a compact impact driver, a circular saw and an LED work light. It comes with two 2.0Ah batteries, a charger, a circular saw blade and a contractor bag.
The brushless motors deliver up to 75% more run time than brushed motors. The XR lithium-ion batteries have a fuel gauge and 33% more capacity than standard packs.
The DCD791 drill/driver has a high-speed transmission with 2 speed settings. It measures 6.9 inches front to back and weighs 3.4 lb, so it fits into tight areas. Its 3-mode LED lights dark or confined spaces and is up to 20 times brighter than the previous model.
